New little OLD folding stove

[mcgyver]

Hey all,
I'm headed up the road in a day or so to pick up this little gem from a guy who no longer has a use for it.
I've made my share of penny stoves, and although fun, they aren't as practical as I'd like.
I've mad a case of paint can wood gas stoves, but they are dirty and awkward to carry.
I've never seen a folding stove like this one, so I'm here at the "well of experience" to see if any of you have any input on this type of stove.

Thanks a bunch!

Holy Crap!!!! I haven't seen one of thosein more than 30 years. That thing also looks like a mini version of my PyroMid cooking system. I'll post photos later. Have you seen the "Pocket Cooker" that Sportsmans Guide sells?

[mcgyver]

Yes, I have been looking at that pocket cooker for a while!
Unfortunately @ 2 pounds, it seems heavier than I would prefer though.
That is exactly why I got excited about this one.

I've never seen that particular model but it looks very similar to this:

I haven't seen that one around either for a while.
Pretty cool.
Got one of these several years ago locally:

Also have one of these w/cup inside each canteen carrier.

Yeah, that's the one Sarky and I were referring to. It has great reviews, but it's heavy and it rusts.

You have this model?
What do you dislike about it?
I know it's an oldie, but if it's Stainless (The guy thinks it is) it should be around a while.

He was not commenting about your stove, but rather one that has been deleted and was originally between his two posts. Not sure why the original poster deleted their post, but they did.

That looks like a good stove.

I found a folding hibachi at the goodwill store and paid 50 cents(?). It hadn't been used and was still in the box. Even though it's typical cheap Chinese, I think it's neat in that it will fold flat.

And the food is ready in ....... flive minute. flive minute.

A couple years ago, Sportmans Guide sold those 3 for $10, I picked them up, never have used them.
